JAKARTA - The Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) has evidence related to allegations of bribery and gratification by former Tanah Bumbu Regent Mardani H. Maming. He is suspected of receiving money from many parties after granting a mining business permit.

Acting KPK Spokesperson for Enforcement, Ali Fikri, said that one of the companies that provided the lubricant for Mardani was PT PCN. This company even helped Mardani create another company.

"After PT PCN started operating in coal mining, MM (Mardani Maming) was suspected of establishing several companies that were facilitated and financed by PT PCN," said Ali in a written statement, Thursday, July 21.

Ali did not specify the total number of companies created by Mardani with the help of PT PCN. However, the Corruption Eradication Commission believes that the company was used to smooth out the irrational practices carried out by the General Treasurer of the Nahdlatul Ulama Executive Board (PBNU).

"Some of the companies referred to are actually directors and shareholders who are still affiliated with MM, which later in their activities were wrapped in the formalism of an 'underlying' cooperation agreement to cover the flow of money from the directors of PT PCN through several companies affiliated with MM in the amount of around Rp. 104.3 billion, " he explained.

Not only PT PCN, another company, namely PT Bangun Karya Pratama Lestari, requested that Mardani's mining business permit be assisted. Money is given to make this licensing business more smoothly.

"Even though this is contrary to Law Number 4 of 2009 concerning Mineral and Coal Mining," he said.

Previously reported, Mardani filed a pretrial lawsuit to the South Jakarta District Court after receiving a letter of naming the suspect from the KPK. The Executive Board of Nahdlatul Ulama (PBNU) appointed members of the Governor's Team for the Acceleration of Development (TGUPP) DKI Jakarta Bambang Widjojanto and former Deputy Minister of Law and Human Rights (Wamenkumham) Denny Indrayana as legal counsel.

The chairman of the Indonesian Young Entrepreneurs Association (HIPMI) has been named a suspect in alleged bribery and gratification related to mining permits in Tanah Bumbu, Kalimantan. This corrupt practice allegedly occurred when Mardani was still in office.

The determination of Maming as a suspect by the KPK was initially known from the Directorate General of Immigration when confirming the existence of prevention abroad. Meanwhile, the KPK has not made an announcement because efforts to force detention have not been carried out.
